Bowie didn't score a lot in this game, but his defense was impeccable all game long, and his passing for a man his size was spectacular in this game. Not often you see a 7'1" big man move his feet on defense the way Bowie did in this game or make those kind of passes, and he also took care of a lot of the other intangibles that a team needs to win a game like this too. Big Sam overall had a terrific game that day! GO CATS!!

Melvin Turpin very underrated big man.

This team should have won the national championship

Very underated Uk team they were very deep and talented defensely

Horrendous second half shooting against Georgetown in the Final four cost them a final with Houston

@@rbryant100 , agreed 110%. They came out and punched a cocky Georgetown in the nose right out of the gate. Almost couldn't miss. 2nd-half was unfortunately it's own episode of the Twilight Zone. They went nearly 10 minutes into the 2nd-half before Dicky Beal finally scored their fist basket of the half. Georgetown was just not a team you could afford to go nearly 10 minutes of any half against without scoring. Watched the game from the middle of the desert in a little range camp called Oro Grande Range(the T-shirt reads 30 miles from water, 2 feet from hell.) Roughly 90+ miles back east to El Paso, Texas and roughly 110 miles west to Las Cruises, New Mexico. Watched on a little cigarette lighter TV with a makeshift antenna run from a RATT Rig(Radio Teletype Rig). I was heartbroken at how badly the 2nd-half of that game went for the Cats.

Only reason they made it to the final 4 was because they got to play the regionals in corrupt arena.

Wish Bowie didn't have leg problems, he would have definitely been top 20-15 centers in NBA history

If Sam Bowie had stayed healthy the cats would’ve went all the way that year!!

They went to the final 4 that year 83-84; Bowie came back that season. I think they would have won it all in the 82-83 had he played.

Bowie was healthy that whole season. Problem for UK in that Georgetown game was the entire UK front line got punked by Ewing and Graham.

Bowie straight up dominated this game. Blocks, steals and a couple of the illest dimes you will ever see from a big man. This is while he was rusty.

Fouling to extend the game down 20 with no time left. Ridiculous😂 Crumb a real glutton for punishment 🤣 padding the Cats stats LOL

Poor Jim Master.

Do you have the halftime show?

Need to double check. I don't remember if I edited the video

Totally clean block by Billy Thompson on UK’s first possession. Typical UK “home court advantage”.

Yes it was but loserville has had calls on their home court too. Didn't make no difference in the game. I will say this this was a UK team that should have won it all that year but Joe B played that grind it out style instead of running like the 78 team did

2500$ to sit top row.

Lol All that home cooking the corrupt arena lol
